oPERation
do not use a PTO adapter to attach a non-matching Implement driveline to a Tractor PTO. Use of
an adapter can double the operating speed of the Cutter resulting in excessive vibration, thrown
objects, and blade and cutter failure. adapter use will also change the working length of the driveline
exposing unshielded driveline areas. Serious bodily injury and/or equipment failure can result from
using a PTO adapter. consult an authorized dealer for assistance if the Implement driveline does not
match the Tractor PTO.
Never operate the Tractor and cutter if the Implement input driveline is directly connected to the
tractor transmission. tractor braking distances can be substantially increased by the momentum of
the rotating Cutter blades driving the tractor transmission even though the tractor clutch has been
disengaged. Install an over running clutch between
the Tractor PTO and the cutter driveline to prevent
this potentially dangerous situation.
tire Spacing
tractor tires should be set a minimum of 60” apart
measured from inside of tire to inside of tire. Refer
to the tractor Operator’s Manual or consult an
authorized dealer for instructions to change tractor
tire spacing.

DO NOT use a PTO adapter to attach a non-matching Implement driveline to a Tractor
PTO. Use of an adapter can double the operating speed of the Mower resulting in
excessive vibration, thrown objects, and blade and mower failure. Adapter use will also
change the working length of the driveline exposing unshielded driveline areas. Serious bodily injury and/or
equipment failure can result from using a PTO adapter. Consult an authorized dealer for assistance if the
Implement driveline does not match the Tractor PTO.
